Thursday Thirteen #4

By the numbers...

1. The number of times I wish I only had to tell my kids to do
things.
2. The number of hours of sleep I got in a row last night...Jane wasn't feeling too good and whimpered all night.
3. The number Jane will be soon.
4. The number of kids I have.
5. The number of days John's camp out stuff has been spread out in the living room.
6. The number of ounces Katie Anne normally gets in her bottles these days.
7. The number of times I get asked, by EACH kid in our family,
"What's for dinner?"
8. The number of loads of laundry in a typical week...sheets, towels, boys darks, girls darks, our warm water darks, our cold water darks, whites, unexpected washings, of which I always expect at least one!
9. The number of minutes each boy gets to empty their rack of the dishwasher. It really shouldn't even take that long, but we're working on it!
10. The amount of plastic food I 'ate' while playing tea party.
(Incidentally, the name on the play soup was 'chunky bucket'. Who would think of that???)
11.The number of gray hairs I pulled out this morning. Ugh.
12. The number of days until we go to Disneyland!
13. The number of times I actually tell my kids to do things!

What a fun list! I may have to copy the idea some time!

I'm sorry Janie wasn't feeling good last nights. Thanks so much for inviting me to the park. It's exactly what the kids and I needed today.
